hi,

i've got a problem in downloading freebsd through internet.
Although my pentium starts the installation normally
detects the ethernet adapter, it cannot recognize the
or configure the DHCP servers (blocks while detecting)
and it seems to me that the network configuration card
that  appears then is pointless, since even if i fill all my
network settings of my cable provider, it ends with an error
for not resolving the ftp.freeebsd.org address.

Has anybody had the same problem ?

thanks for helping
